|
“With great sorrow and tears I read about the economic suffering that occurred in Northern Israel to the small women's businesses due to the bombing that happened. I felt the pain of all the artisans mentioned in your news brief… my heart cried for Israel" – An excerpt from an email sent to Yosepha Tabib-Calif, Northern Exposure Coordinator, following a feature article on the project in the Jerusalem Post, July 10th, 2007. Earlier this month, SHATIL hosted a group of journalists on a Northern Exposure tour of micro-businesses, highlighting the accomplishments of this innovative SHATIL initiative (www.nes.org.il). Following the tour, an article appeared in the Jerusalem Post, detailing SHATIL's work and included highlights of interviews with business owners such as Dorit Jordan Dotan, a ketubah designer (http://www.nes.org.il/businesses/79/). http://www.nif.org/media-center/nif-in-the-news/northern-exposure.html
